The Daytons WERE working fine, but I might have fried em, LOL
No big deasl, they are cheap, and if I did fry em, I now know their limits.
I was hammering them with a bass CD, TRYING to hasten break in.

Hey, another question ?
I have some ported small monitors, made for near wall placement.
hey have the port on the front.

They are a small 8 inch 2 way.

I have em in another system on stands, out 3 feet from back wall.

They sound a BIT thin away from the rear wall, but image and look better.

Could I simply shorten the port tube a bit to "warm em up" compansate for the away from wall placement ?

I am using them with a subwoofer, but they sound overdamped, like someone did an EBS tuning intentionally so they sounded right when against wall.
